Ace's POV

shit!! I cursed out loud. I had been stabbed. this would not be the first time I had taken a knife but this was different.

my arms were burning and spreading rapidly. the knife had been laced with a special kind of poison. I staggered backwards. a man came at me and I struggled to put him down.

I quickly took out my phone to text the only person who could save me right now. I just hope she makes it here on time or I'm dead.

I looked at my arms and the burning was almost at my shoulder blades. I had reacted quickly. if I had not interjected the knife. I would have been stabbed at my stomach or chest and that meant the poison was likely to reach my heart faster.

relaxing to the floor, I took out a tiny pieces of clothing from my gear and tied it firmly around my shoulder. hopefully that buys me some time.

I did not have the time to gravel at my misery, so, I stood up , picked up my weapons and got back to work.

the first unlucky bastard came at me and I stabbed him right into his throat.

I might be a tech boy but I was well trained at combat.

Hailey's POV

I was in pure ecstacy as I rode this guy I met at the club earlier. I could not remember his name but I couldn't care less about his identity anyway. he grabbed my waist adding to the rhythm.

my phone vibrated by the bedstand. a text.

"hand me my phone" I ordered the guy. he fully obliged. my eyes flew open by the coded content. we had not had a case of such a poisoning in a long time. I immediately rolled off the guy. I could clearly see the disappointment visible on his face. I couldn't care less. I threw his clothes at him which he hurriedly wore. he tried to say something probably to remind me of his name or drop his cell phone number but I shot the door at his face and immediately put on my field combat outfit.

I immediately pressed a few buttons under the bed, it opened up. I had everything in there. ranging from weapons to poisons to cash but I've also got antidotes there. and one of them was what I was badly looking for right now.

I pressed a few more buttons and the red box slipped out of its compartment. I opened it up with my fingerprint and took out one ampoule and a syringe. and hurriedly made my way out of the apartment. my combat trousers and bulletproof vest glistening under the lights as I made my way to the garage. I got into my Kawasaki Ninja and sped off into the night.

"s**t" I cursed as I came across Ace. he was in a bad shape. probably holding on to the last glimmer of hope. I could hear faint footsteps and I knew that some of his targets where still alive. luckily, they had not found him in this state yet or he would have been dead.

I immediately injected him the antidote and kissed the dark blood off his lips. he gave a weak smile and I stood up.

in a second, all that care was wiped off, replaced with nothing but coldness and a dark murderous eyes. I took out a combat knife and a straight nickel gun as I headed for the direction of the sound. walking stealthily, making little or no sound at all. I saw the first man. he was fat as f**k. he hid behind a pillar with his gun in his hand. I smirked, put away my weapons. I could handle him with my bare hands. I moved closer to him. when I was standing right behind him, I tapped him gently on his shoulders three times. in shock, he lost his composure and his gun fell as he hurriedly turned towards me. I gave him some space. I flapped my arms wide and while he was probably wondering what I was doing, I raised up my legs high above my head and flipped him backwards with a toe kick. wow, I'm so glad I took those ballet classes even though it was just an undercover mission. I was asked to keep an eye on our arch enemy's daughter and I did my job quite well.

footsteps kept echoing from all directions. I got to work immediately. some I killed through skilled combat and others , I used my most cherished set of weapons.

when I was done with the kill, I searched around to make sure non was missing. I had earlier picked up Ace's phone. so, I did a quick scan through of his given targets. after confirming that all was accounted for, I went ahead to start deleting their forms of identification. I was halfway done when I felt a barrel pressed tightly to the back of my head. I was wearing a hearing enhancer which is necessary when going on a mission, as it allows to pick up even the slightest of sounds. so, whoever this person was have had to be extremely stealth. but I didn't panick. instead, I raised both hands up in surrender as I turned around to face him. I saw nothing but darkness and shadows. the man or woman was clad in dark flowing cloak. totally unrecognizable. with the gun still pressed to my head with his well gloved right hand, he pulled up my mask with his left hand. for a while he did not make a move. I always had finger blades on. that was my secret move. the reason why I wasn't scared . I arranged them perfectly between fingers and made to attack him but he blocked my attacks and squeezed my hands. though , he was holding my hands with both of his hands, but he still held the gun tightly and well pointed. that was an impossible move that even I cannot pull off. the only person who could pull off a move like that was godfather but he wasn't godfather. at least , this person was not as physically built as godfather who always stood tall in every room. my breath hitched.
